Several dozen former workers at Windows on the World, the restaurant destroyed in the attack on the World Trade Center in 2001, will open a cooperative restaurant called Colors at 417 Lafayette Street, according to the Restaurant Opportunities Center of New York, a group working with the employees. Officials with the group said that they signed a lease yesterday and that the restaurant, south of the Public Theater, would open later this year. Colors, which is to serve American food with global influences, is receiving financial support from a consortium of Italian food cooperatives. Steven Greenhouse (NYT)
